In model theory, a branch of mathematical logic, NIP stands for "Not the Independence Property." It is a property of certain theories in model theory that describes how formulas behave with respect to independence relations. A theory \( T \) is said to be NIP if it does not have the independence property, which can be intuitively understood as a restriction on the kinds of types that can exist in models of the theory.
